Savor a delightful twist on a classic dinner with tender, herb-crusted baked salmon served alongside fluffy quinoa and perfectly roasted broccoli. The harmonious blend of fresh herbs, zesty lemon, and a drizzle of olive oil creates a vibrant medley of flavors that's both nourishing and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Salmon Fillet
0.25 cup Quinoa (uncooked)
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (chopped)
1 Garlic clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small pot, combine the quinoa with 0.5 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.
While the quinoa cooks, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in an even layer and roast in the oven for about 15 minutes, until tender and slightly crispy.
For the salmon, preheat a separate baking dish. In a small bowl, mix the chopped fresh herbs, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Pat the salmon dry and then coat it with the herb mixture.
Place the salmon in the baking dish and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
To serve, place a serving of quinoa on the plate, top with a salmon fillet, and add roasted broccoli on the side. Optionally, drizzle a little extra lemon juice over the dish for added brightness.
